Right I've got myself a HS TD05-20G for my 93 WRX so have bought a V3/4 inlet plus spacers and a toyosports turbo inlet pipe to go front entry. Inlet and turbo pipe are fitted nicely and I have sorted the relevant wiring for throttle body, temp sensor and ICV. Problem I am having is what to do with the all the various vacum pipes?? The Toyosports pipe has various connections most of which I would assume are irelavant? I will also be running mafless so I assume any breathers that would normally of plumbed back into the inlet now need a new solution? Anyone that has experience with this conversion able to point me in the right direction please, cheers guys.

Why have you changed the inlet, the phase 1 is a better inlet manifold and better base to start from. If you have just rotated the phase 1.5 manifold then you may have problems with the ICV hitting the bonnet especially if you are using spacers.

Just to be clear I'm converting to front entry turbo from top entry not reversing the inlet manifold.
I was under the impression that my original phase 1 inlet would be to tight to accommodate a front entry turbo even with the spacers?? Cant say that I have actually tried it tho but the v3/4 inlet was still tight even tho its designed for front entry turbos.

Not my pictures, but this lot fits under a Phase 1 manifold, with 25mm spacers;

OEM inlet is meant to be tight under a Phase 1.5 manifold.

Cheers for that Micky, I will have a go with the phase 1 manifold tomorrow and see how I get on.

Not that difficult to get a full size intake pipe under the manifold. I used spacers, cant remember if they were 10mm or 20mm. Also used a newage power steering pump and resevoir. Some old pics below
